Main

Richard S. Hanna

As a Data Scientist at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, I develop data-driven solutions and design operational software to support clinical and research needs. The contextual scope of my work has ranged from pediatric cardiac arrest to airway management and, most recently, to cell and gene therapy and stem cell transplantation. My passion is to provide both education and problem solving support through data science and engineering in an effort to improve patient care and answer cutting-edge medical questions.
